Upgrade or NotI have use the Note series since the Note 3. I read a lot of blogs, forums, etc. based on the specs it would not be with the upgrade. Every upgrade so far has been a vast improvement from it's predecessor. Therefore I chose to upgrade. I was not disappointed. Although on paper it may not seem much of an upgrade from the note 4, it is a great almost new product. The design is revamped and fits better in the hands. The metal frame is much better and less prone to scratches then the 4. The speed is amazing. The lack of features such as the battery and SD card really didn't matter to me. That allows for a better design and speed. Great job Samsung!

The Samsung Note 5 is a superb top-of-the-line phone with the greatest features.The S-pen has huge capabilities. You may take notes on- the -go without ever opening your phone. Just write on the black screen and hit save. Love that function! Another great feature is the power saving mode and the ultra power saving mode. The fast charger allows the phone to charge in under an hour 100%. S-voice allows you to control your phone by voice commands, like unlocking, phone a party, search, message a party and more.
The performance is excellent, being a very quick phone. No waiting for loading.
The Samsung Note 5 has a sleek design, is thin, and easy to hold. Nice size. Great quality screen!
Well worth the price! An excellent value overall!

BadI can not believe that Samsung took away the removeable battery and the SD card. Also, they removed the 360 rotating screen. I wish I could go back to my Note 4. I have had all of the Note products as well as owing several tablets, watches, and bluethooth headphones. I am very disappointed with this product and at Samsung. Hey Samsung, you have loyal consumers that stayed with you despite the ups and downs on your products. If we wanted something that looked like or operated like the iPhone we would just go get an iPhone...!

wow, love the s-penthis phone is amazing, im not one to review things, but this had to be said.
the phone is gorgeous, its AMOLED display is amazing, even in daylight i can see it clearly, the camera is a big upgrade from my other phone, Touchwiz has been greatly improved, lots of great useful features, but the best thing about this phone that sets it apart from the others is the S-pen.
the S-pen is something special, it a stylus done right, its also very accurate and convenient, being about to text simply by writing sentences is so helpful, it saves so mush time, if you are looking a phone that helps get alot done in a small amount of time, then this is the device for you.

A Great Addition to the Note FamilyI previously owned the note 3 and was very satisfied with that. So far I'm even happier with the note 5. It's features, especially with the s pen, are seamless and extremely useful in various situations of need. The display is beautiful, the camera is great, and it runs extremely well. Many people are complaining about not being able to have external memory but I don't think it should be a problem, especially if, like myself, one gets the 64gb model. I truly feel like this is a major upgrade to an already great phone, and would highly recommend it to others who are looking for a sophisticated smart phone ahead of the game.

Awesome Phone- Must haveThis is my second Samsung phone , my last one being a Samsung Galaxy 4, but this phone is definitely my favorite out of them both. I love the new features that they added to the phone and when I show people the new features they are often in awe at how awesome this phone is. But my favorite feature about this phone is the stylist, other than being very easy to loose I do enjoy using the stylist to write things on the note app or play games. In conclusion, I would recommend this phone to every one. I have had the phone for near 3 weeks and so far I have found no error or reason to complain. So I do recommend this phone fir new Samsung users and old Samsung users.

Great phoneI had the note edge 4 for only 3 weeks when I dropped it and shattered the screen, when the insurance automatically sent a note 5 as my replacement I will say that my initial reaction was not of pleasure. I had purposely waited for the edge and choosen the Note 4 because of the ability to expand memory and access to my battery, but when insurance wouldn't budge on replacing my Note 4 edge with a like product I settled and started using the Note 5. In time I have learned to love the non glare screen and fast speeds that this phone produces. Would recommend this phone to anyone in need of a good phone that is user friendly

Absolutely the best phone I ever had (and I have had many)This is my third Note, and it is by far the best. I really liked my Note 4 Edge, especially the memory expansion and battery exchange. But with this Note 5, I do not miss the other features. It is sleek, fast, and the newer features associated with the S-pen, and ability to write on the screen when the phone is in the off position is incredible. Samsung pay is fantastic, and to be honest, the main reason i upgraded. But now I am happy I did upgrade for many other reasons. I moved from the iPhone some time ago and will never ever go back. Samsung, you got it right this time. I do wish it had curved edges like the Samsung S6 Edge+ but other than that, a pure home run.
